Nightcrawler247

Watching at work lol. Was too excited. Yall look SHARP, baby!

Natasha M.

Okkkk loving the fits

Avishai

Im not gone lie, I dont think Adison is mentally ready for what this movie has to say. Respectfully. Because its easy to take it as disrespect or a critique of Christianity. Hopefully he'll just miss all that and can just take it as entertainment for now and maybe return to this seriously in like ten years lbs. Either way, Ima enjoy this reaction.

YoursUNTRULY

YALL DRESSED TO IMPRESS!!!! I LOVE IT❤️❤️❤️

Ayruzii

A mojo bag is actually practiced by a lot of Christians ! Hoodoo is folk magic rooted in African American Christians ! There is nothing demonic about it, and they pray to the book of psalms !

Ayruzii

I feel like as a Christian man he can pull a Good message from this movie which is what I love about it

Russ

Fits going crazy 🔥 I know yall notifications blowing up rn🔥🤣

where_is_t

Slim’s trauma was palpable telling that story, but when he broke into song he made us *feel* his blues. Delroy Lindo been overdue for his flowers, I hope they give him all the things for his portrayal of Delta Slim.

AllyBoo124

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

NS

I'm watching after work, but I have to say you both look so handsome. The outfits are really well done.

Avishai

Nah facts. I pulled a good message about Christianity from it. But I also got a critique of the church from it and saw a lot of Christians see it as a series of shots at them and the church. So he could pull a good message from it, but I don't think its likely.

Ayruzii

Oh most def and I love How Ryan called that out !! I love this movie because you can get so many interpretations from it !

Brittany

I never comment but yall look so good I had to lol appreciate the commitment lol

Chandra

I’m so tickled that yall got dressed up!

Jerzey First

For the most part I keep quiet on here and just laugh. But I need to say I'm hella excited. Adison you bring great questions and alternate perspectives that makes me think and question things. I appreciate the different perspectives. Brandon, you bring the common sense realness that absolutely feels like my partner is right next to me and honeys, I'm so freaking excited. I haven't even watched the video yet, but I need to see this because Adison you're going to make me think and Brandon, you'll make me ready to ride. Love you both.

Reba Renee

Thank you for this because amc is getting too expensive now smh

VirgosGrooveXO

My message might be long, but I hope it provides more context for you both. Sinners wasn’t trying to push some anti-Christian or “spirituality over religion” agenda nor was it about glorifying sin. It was about Black people in the 1930s trying to feel joy and freedom for one night in a world built to oppress them. That’s not sin — that’s survival. And the film is asking us to look deeper — to honor both God and the roots we were forced to forget. It was set during the 1930s, but it was depicting our African American history — showing how the trauma from colonization and the transatlantic slave trade still affected us then, and even now. Just look at today’s climate: the current administration is using their interpretation of religion to push us back to a time where people were oppressed and stripped of their rights and freedoms. We all know religion can be misused when it’s rooted in control, fear, or shame — especially in our community. Europeans demonized African spirituality, labeling the blues as “devil music” and our original beliefs as witchcraft. They forced our ancestors to abandon their practices to break their spiritual strength, cultural unity, and resistance. The truth is, racism warped our relationship with both religion and the blues. So this movie isn’t about choosing spirituality over Christianity — it’s about recognizing that our connection to spirit existed long before the Bible was placed in our hands. Sammie wasn’t running from God — he was trying to find freedom within himself. But his father, like many others, used faith to box him in instead of letting him discover his own connection with God. That mirrors how oppressors used religion to keep us “in line” for generations — to bend our will, suppress our culture, and keep us mentally on the plantation, even when the world outside was starting to change. When religion becomes rigid and performative, it starts to feel less like love and more like spiritual punishment. Remember — even Remmick had a similar experience when his people encountered colonizers. That’s why he created his own fellowship, one rooted in love, because the version of religion forced on them didn’t include that love. The movie also shows that Black people were spiritual long before Christianity, and that connection — through music, emotion, intuition, or simply being true to yourself — is powerful too. It wasn’t saying Christianity is bad. It was saying that faith without love, freedom, or understanding can do more harm than good. That’s why Annie’s mojo bag worked. It was made from love — her love for Smoke, for their family, for protection. That spiritual act came from a place of care and intention — not fear or control. Even today, Black Christianity is a blend of African spiritual traditions and biblical teachings — shaped by trauma, resistance, and creativity. A lot of our church culture — like call-and-response, drumming, shouting, and catching the Holy Ghost — reflects our African roots. Even Hoodoo, as shown in the movie, comes directly from African traditions. Not to mention our own interpretations of the Bible that depicts a loving God regardless of our skin color. The film does challenge the comfort zones of inherited religion, but it also shows that we as Black people need room to reconnect with both God and our ancestral roots. We shouldn’t be forced into boxes that colonizers built. Because we are — and have always been — more than what they tried to mold us into.

Ash Lee Can

Yes, a lot of people don't realize that hoodoo is a spirituality system practiced traditionally by African Americans for centuries, which is a mixture of West African traditions, Native American botany, and Christian influences. Just like Hatian Vodou/New Orleans Voodoo is often demonized in the media, when it's a religion that's formed in Haiti. A mixture of West African practices, traditions, and spirituality, and Catholicism, incorporating Catholic saints, rituals such as prayer and other Catholic/Christian traditions, which was later brought over to Lousiana/New Orleans. We should definitely educate ourselves about these things and not what others try to speak on it. People will be surprised on what misinformation has been pushed onto them their whole lives...

Chelsea Turner

Dang I wanna watch this reaction but I haven't seen the movie for myself first. I gotta go watch it now, just don't wanna pay for prime or HBO lol

Ayruzii

I’m sorry I’m not informed enough voodoo culture, but I will read into it ! Everyone just says New Orleans is haunted so I’ve always been afraid to go and maybe that was stigmatized in me and I apologize for that !

Jasmine Townsend

Okay!! Y’all look good 👏🏾👏🏾. Come on gentlemen ☺️

Antoine Lebrane

yo movies coming out fast as hell got damn i remember when it used to take a couple months for a movie to drop now its like a month 😂😂

SonjaB29

I really tried to finished watching the movie first, but I had to pause because you guys, Adison and Brandon need to brush up on your own ancestral/culture history. 1st a mojo is from hoodoo. It’s not demonic but something sacred, object(s) and herbs in a small sack that has been blessed and prayed over by your ancestors to keep one safe. Think of a blessed handkerchief that’s been anointed w/blessed oil from church if you’re Pentecostal or Holiness denomination. Or like carrying a saint around your neck/pocket if you’re Catholic. 2. Blues music did come over with us from Africa. It’s just been transformed/updated throughout the ages to reflect our culture and struggles through slavery. 3. Remmick wants Annie for her spiritual knowledge. Once Smoke killed her, she became an ancestor which increased the power of her prayers over Smoke. (Think, the prayers of the righteous.) Even when your parents die the promise of their prayers from God don’t fade, but increase because of their sacrifice. I love y’all but with respect, I would encourage you guys to learn a bit more of your history. We have been lead to believe that much of our ancestral ways was evil, but it’s not. Christianity and the first Bible originated from Ethiopia.

dayna Ram

Y'all really ate those fashion's!! 👏🏼👏🏼🔥🔥

Ash Lee Can

Thank you for this comment. You expressed it far more and better than I could have, for certain. Hopefully this will encourage others to look deeper into it all. It's always good to educate yourselves...

Tyrademi

First things first — W outfit, gentleman! 😮‍💨 When they hinted at Hoodoo and how music connects to spirits and our ancestors’ stories, I was hoping they’d stick with that. It was a bit disappointing when it turned into a vampire plot — we've seen enough of those. A horror film focused on ancestral connections would’ve felt more original and powerful, especially since it's rooted in real traditions. Still, the movie was good though!

Naomi

thats why u should watch it with them!! i also haven't seen the movie and plenty of other shows so watching it for the first time with them is nice. i did that with the last of us for example, didnt wanna get hbo so i watched it alongside them, but if that's not ur type of thing i get that

Chelsea Turner

I heard there's some sexual content and you know Adison be having a heart attack with anything sexual . Want to be able to enjoy the actual movie without that block screen first.

Vatti

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 hope they get to read this.

AllyBoo124

Thank you for being one of the only reactors I’ve seen realize that they wanted annie to be with them not because of her knowledge but because she is their family and they love her. After turning they had fully bought into the whole were gonna be one big happy family stack and Mary and annie and smoke, but smoke killing her messed that up. We see throughout the movie that all these people love each other, have grown up together and share a history.

Monica

Nah, they honestly talk through some important scenes. So I would watch it by yourself first before watching a reaction to it.

AllyBoo124

One of my favorite scenes that really shows just how far back our core characters go with each other is when Bo slides closed the window that goes into the bar and grace and annie just shrug it off and keep watching the performance. It’s subtle but they aren’t concerned and have probably seen a million situations play out like that and they just let their men handle their business like this isn’t a new dynamic to them it’s all very familiar

Harmony

Yay!!💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾❤️

AllyBoo124

I don’t believe Sammie was saying he would RELIVE everything about that day, but he’s saying before all the good that happened it was the best day of his life before it turned into the worst day of his life. He got to spend time with his big cousins, he met and befriended a local musical icon in slim, he talked to a pretty girl, and got to sing his heart out. Like it was a great day until it wasn’t

AllyBoo124

And about Sammie leaving with his guitar, even from a different stand point I know many different pastor’s kids that feel like they never got the chance to the choose the lord for themselves and that it was just thrust upon you. And even in abusive situations you can have someone claiming that they believe in God and Jesus’s love but their actions and behaviors aren’t showing that so you end up getting a misunderstanding of who God is from them. Sammie comes home beaten and bloodied and his father the person who is supposed to care and protect doesn’t even ask him if he’s ok, his father stops his mother from checking on him, and starts to turn his son into a sermon and life lesson in front of the whole congregation. Sammie needed his father and not just the pastor in that moment. Like that’s your son and you’re not even checking on him?? And that guitar also saved Sammie’s life literally it stalled remmick enough for smoke to come help him. So I don’t take the ending as Sammie necessarily leaving God or the church but him leaving his family and the lack of support he was getting

2026-09-07 16:00 What’s funny is the young man who plays preacher boy sammy is miles caton who comes from a family of famous gospel singers!

Haiku Guru

Twins bootleg an old mill, Remmick stalks Sammie’s blues call, Smoke raises his stake.

Vatti

I’m reluctant to watch their reaction because of how they perceive ancestral identity and how idealistic they are on Christianity. (If I can say like that. English is not my first language)… but yeah…Addison specifically.

Skrappy

Annie ran off by herself. Smoke locked Stack in the saw mill since it was daytime. That's why he shot the Klan members by the doors first. He still protected him right before he died.

SonjaB29

All of this my brothers. 👆👆All of this. Please learn more about your ancestors and culture.

SonjaB29

Finished watching the movie with you guys and as always, Adison and Brandon, you make watching 💯 more entertaining. I enjoy you guys trying to figure out what’s what throughout the movie. 🍿 Thanks for reviewing Sinners. I believe it will end up being a classic. Also, look Miles Canton up on YouTube singing with church choirs. Later he toured with the singer “Her.”

Monica

Mary not Annie

Call Me When It Burns 🎀

AND also in BLACK culture, hoodoo is sacred practice meant for protection, do not get that confused with Voodoo and Witchcraft.

xavier williams

yessir needed this yall need watch the vampire diaries

AD

Absolutely loved this reaction & the outfits were 10/10🤣 I just wanted to say watching this a second time I thought it was really interesting at the end when older sammie said that before the sun went down was the best day of his life because in the beginning he wanted to be a musician, he then became a musician (lived his dream) and still the best day of his life was before he did any of that. Great reaction guys, thoroughly enjoyed this 🫶🏾

Call Me When It Burns 🎀

and YES music came WITH us from Africa. Religion wasn't widely spread until slavery twisted christianity and used it against us

2026-09-07 16:00 When enslaved people were freed and started working as sharecroppers, the plantation owners paid them in wooden nickels that could only be used as currency on plantations. It was their way of paying black people but keeping the money on the plantations because it was basically fake money. That’s why smoke didn’t want to take it

The vampires and the connection to the music were a metaphor for white people stealing our culture though so it made complete sense.

Skrappy

You're right....Mary

Tyrademi

I'm not saying the movie didn't make sense — that's why I ended my comment by saying it's still a good movie. What I meant is: if you're making a horror movie and hinting at Winti Prey — a tradition where music, offerings, ritual items, dance, and prayer are used to connect with positive spirits — why not explore that fully? If not done properly or by someone uninitiated, such rituals can attract harmful spirits, leading to illness, misfortune, or imbalance. In my opinion hat kind of cultural and spiritual depth would have been more interesting than using vampires — something we've already seen so often.

Queen S

I'm glad you bought that up Brandon about the voodoo and them playing with the baptism and the Lord's prayer I didn't like that! I did not go see this movie when it came out because I don't like vampire movies I don't like movies that make it seem that the enemy has more power than God when they can play with the Lord's prayer that kind of stuff I can't get with that but playing with the Lord's prayer I did not like that! I am not trying to make this about religion but I think it's just some things you just don't play with. I watched reactors I was really curious to see what you guys thought about it since you guys are Christians that's why I watched this reaction to see what you guys thought about it spiritually because when I watched other reactors to this they only liked the movie a lot of them said it was a great movie they only saw the entertainment of it but for me personally I would never watch this movie again I watched it through you guys and a few other reactors I liked it up into the vampire part ❤️

Bex

i subscribed to the patreon (big EDN fanover on youtube) JUST for this reaction mainly because #1 i didn't expect yall to react to this lol #2 i neeeeed the full length reaction & #3 brandon looked gooooooood in his fit in the preview lol

Sierra Davis

If yal haven’t seen, “The Harder They Fall,” yal should look into it. Very good film and has another great black cast.

Monica

You're missing the point of the lord prayer scene. Christianity was force on Irish Catholic people in the past before christ. Remmick family and religion was attack before him being turned into a vampire which is what he was telling Sammie.

Courtney Jayd

You all had a FANTASTIC discussion afterwards 😭😭🥺 love this . I had to go to sleep before the live was over 💤

Queen S

I may have missed the point Monica but I wish they would have did that scene in a different way because the Lord's prayer means a lot to me it got me through a lot in my life so it's different for me

Shameka

I love fun and random facts like this!

Call Me When It Burns 🎀

It means the devil is listening to prayers just as much as the lord; evil is relentless, the bigger message is to get right with god and be careful with what you say in prayer.

Shameka

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! That was great to read and learn something new.

Jaci Henley

Miles Canton "Sammy" sang Secret Garden on BET Awards on Monday! He has a voice that i want to hear more of!!

Shameka

Okay Hummingbird with that sermon after the movie! Well Done

Lilian Hill

I enjoy watching y’all’s content and I’m aware that y’all talk over the shows/movies in every reaction but this is one of those movies where you really have to listen and pay attention. the meaning of this film goes so much deeper than a lot of ppl realize. with that being said I’ve watched this movie like 5 times while giving it my full attention and I still catch something new each time so I’m definitely not expecting y’all to catch everything off the first reaction. Just saying I definitely encourage y’all to give it another watch!

Aniah Troublefield

I get what you are saying but you also have to remember that religion was used back then to control slaves and make them obey their masters. That's why a lot of people don't get into Christianity because religious people are so judgmental, and they only see christianity as the only religion. And most of them are sinners themselves but are quick to judge (but thou shall not judge). You shouldn't force your religion and beliefs on someone. And if you watched the movie his father is a pastor and when he came back from what happened the night before his father didn't ask him if he was okay. Remmick is supposed to represent the devil, and it shows you that even the devil knows the bible, because let's not forget Lucifer was an angel first. And it's hoodoo not voodoo they are different. Voodoo is a religion with a hierarchical structure, focusing on the worship of spirits called Loa. Hoodoo, on the other hand, is a folk magic tradition with a more individual focus on root work, herbal remedies, and magical practices. And you see when Stack was trying to bite Smoke, the bag protected him. Sammie went to the church first because sometimes when someone falls on hard times or goes through something sometimes, they go to the church first but sometimes it might not work in their favor. And this is coming from someone who was born in a Christian family.

Aniah Troublefield

The movie isn't saying that it's not right to pray to God but to honor both God and remember the roots we were forced to forget.

Decolonial

Our ancestors weren't Christian when they came to this country as slaves. They had their own indigenous African spiritual systems and beliefs before they were forced to abandon it due to structural white supremacy via Christianity. So to be honest anything referencing Hoodoo or Voodoo shouldn't bother anyone given the history of slavery across the African diaspora. I know church folk get real sensitive but cmon yall...

Jen M

3 hours!!! Ok, imma have to break this up! But yall look nice though! 😂

Floyd Orlando Farquharson

I would correct one thing: The first Bible originated in the Middle Eastern Asia region (Ancient) not Africa(Ethiopia)-African had their own belief systems that are still somewhat active to this day but it wasn't Christianity; migrants moved there overtime and carried the culture with them spreading the faith as well colonizers (major colonies) but that's not the origin point - [ Accounts of God's work and the perspectives of Christian faith]

Decolonial

To be fair to them, black people across the African diaspora today have largely lost their cultural connections to Africa. That's especially true for church/super Christian folks. We've been through decades of anti-African propaganda to root ourselves in the denial of Africanity which is a direct product of white supremacy. It takes A LOT of struggle sessions for church folk to come out of that.

Queen S

I understand what all of you are saying I'm not trying to have a debate about religion or ancestry or anything like that I'm just saying that I did not like that scene no matter what it meant for the movie it meant something different for me and I am a Christian and I'm proud of it and I'm not trying to be judgmental about anything I'm just giving my opinion about a movie because I know in the end only God is the judge and far as I'm concerned people can do what they want to do and believe what they want to believe in I just made a comment like everybody else

Jaci Henley

I had to re-watch! This was just fun to watch with everyone! This makes my 6th time watching Sinners.

PVaughn

Y’all looked SHARPER than razor blades!!!

Decolonial

Similar to how Zionism in Israel has been used to crush and colonize Palestine for the past 76+ years, Christianity was also used as a weapon to crush the indigenous populations of the Americas and African slaves across the diaspora. That interpretation of Christianity was designed to destroy the cultural identity and resources of colonized peoples which is why we see so many of our people today (church folk especially) fumble when it comes to anything rooted in the culture of our African ancestors. The response from black church folk behind this movie was wild. I knew this would be a tough watch for the EDN boyz lol

Jaci Henley

The soundtrack is great too. They featured the Fisk Jubilee Singers.

Reggie Riobe

Great reaction from you guys.. two for my favorite vampire movies of all time are Interview with a vampire 1994 Staring Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt & Antonio Banderas... and Vampire in Brooklyn 1995 staring Eddie Murphy and Angela Basset I believe you two would enjoy these two films

Carlo

Let’s Goooooo!!!!!

Carlo

Lookin Sharp!!

Chandra

I live a couple hours from New Orleans in Mobile, AL. I’ve never heard that NOLA was haunted but it wouldn’t surprise me. I don’t think it would carry anymore spirits than any other city in the South. A lot of evil things happened here. NOLA has a lot of history, a lot of fun stuff, some good food and a lot of just regular stuff you’d find in any city. Not everyone likes it but I would encourage you to look up some of the places to visit and consider visiting at least once.

Simply.Trina

……The fits!!!!!! 🔥 😆

ReelPiscesPlays

Chick was focused on killing her husband because that was the only vampire her daughter would let in because that’s her dad. They wanted Annie turn so they could be together as a family

SonjaB29

I hear you and will specify that the oldest complete Bible is the Ethiopian Bible.

SonjaB29

I agree with you on that as someone who was raised, by the sounds of it, as they were in a deeply rooted in Christianity household, for me specifically a strict Pentecostal/Holiness doctrine that teaches watching a movie like Sinners would be a sin. But as adults I think we do ourselves a disservice by not attempting to learn the truth. Learning the truth about one’s history doesn’t mean you have to stop believing in God. Christianity has been twisted and used as an excuse in so many ways for so many years. One’s faith in God stands, even as the truth of one’s history remains. We just have to search it out, if it’s not taught to us.

SquishyCinnamonRoll

White Roses, Holy Water, a Cross, Garlic, and Sunlight classic ways to fight Vamps. Holy Water & a Cross are only as strong as your faith. You can rescind your invitation to the vampire but in some cases they can hypnotize you to get their way 😵‍💫

Mikasa

The way Addison pronounced malevolent just sent me 🤣😭😭😭😭😭

Mikasa

I understand y’all from a religious standpoint pertaining to Sammie not letting the guitar go, but that does not mean that he denied God. God gave him his talent. It’s not on him because “sinners” decide to listen to his music. The same type of people he played for in the Juke Joint also listen to gospel music and go to church every Sunday. We still see it today. And let’s be real, some people are OVERLY religious. Namely some of our church leaders. I think that was the case with Sammie and his father. It was literally just music. They use those same notes and tones to make gospel music. Would that also be considered turning your back on God?

Ri Ri

I could go crazy bout this movie, but I’m saving my response for my own blog 😂. What I will say is, yes it is true that we brought with us. While in context, he’s speaking of the blues. The scene depicts all music brought here by African people, no matter their nationality. As it’s pretty common knowledge that music originated in Africa. Therefore the scene you see, even the twerk scene depicted an African woman moving her waist. As “twerking” just derives from the literal African dance that expressed you were ready to have a child, a husband, etc. As I’m not extremely versed, but know broadly. They had all parts of our culture in there 💯. Also, in regard to the religion comment prior to that scene. He is saying historically we were forced to assimilate religiously. You can easily search “slaves forcefully converted to Christianity” on google, and read tons of documents on what we practiced prior, and on secret during slavery, hence Annie. She’s essentially the representation of Gullah’s from the south. What we practiced prior historically, imma leave that for my blog 😅 whole conversation fr. Lastly, Sammie didn’t deny the lord, he accepted that he was taught incorrectly. Music is a gift in the Bible inside many books. His father specifically was teaching from the Slave Bible. If you look it up, and you’ll not only see the reason for this Bible, what was changed, but also the time period it was created and used in…as it is the same time period the movie takes place in. The edited Bible inevitably skewed gifts, to ensure less rebellion and confidence in slaves. Alongside more. A gift will bring the attention of good and bad, that’s inevitable, but it’s clear even the words he knew, didn’t save him, the music did, his passion did, his spirit did. Him not deciding to fw remmick or turn in the end, was far more telling than holding onto music. His music freed him, but not all have ears to hear fr.

Netta S

I feel like Annie was an asset to the vampires because she could’ve persuaded stack to be apart of them…….but also with all the cultural and historical knowledge Annie had.. Remmick could’ve benefited from her memories in addition to Sammie’s gift to “pierce the veil”

Ashleigh

Not me hyping ya’ll up in the intro with the fits!!!!! I see ya’ll young men!! 🔥

Ashleigh

Liquor was the dope back then so they still dopeboys 😂

CeeCee87

Yes “Dandy” attire! I love it!❤️🤣

SeaWinter

One connection I don’t see people mentioning is the girl outside the shop that he taught negotiating skills. She was holding a white flower! He then went inside and added the white flowers to the deal which he immediately went to his daughter’s grave and placed the flowers. It really shows how he would have been as a father, just full of wisdom, passing it down 🤎 I’ve seen this movie 11 times so far ( 7 times in imax) there’s so many layers and meaning behind small details and my fav past time is to rewatch things to get deeper understanding. I am loving every rewatch. The aspect ratio changing on tv looks a little weird to me but in theater it blew my mind when it changed. I truly felt immersed, this movie could have been 10 hours long and I would still watch the whole thing.

bianca

1:44:43 got me 😭😭 yall too funny

SeaWinter

Also wanna point out from y’all reaction that the kids at her shop were not her kids or his kids 😂 they were customers and left right after she gave them the ingredients

Avishai

The way I see it. This movie isnt against or making light of God or Christianity. It just highlights how some people have god given talents that the church shuns. Sammie was saved by his guitar. His manifestation of his gifts from god. Especially after praying for help. So the fact that his dad was offering him subjugation just like the vampire was a mirror on the church and not so much an attack on god... IMO

Avishai

In the discussion at the end, you made a good point about how Gospel artists could have terrible lives because of the industry. But like they said in the beginning of the movie, this music attracts evil. No matter what you're talking about. When you have that transformative power in your music, you attract evil. So it could be said that other music outside of gospel is also good music. It just attracts evil. And I think that's why artists like Sammie are called to work outside of the calling. Because work can be done there too. But they just never expect to met with all that evil.

Monica

Smoke was doing the same with threatening him not to play anymore Jukes.

Britt

It's on the channel.

smoke was more so to keep him safe not use his talent for his own benefits. it was Stack who knew before the club opening that sammy could sing. Smoke found out when he actually played at the club. i agree with you Saturn Metaku. i just need to correct this thought that EDN said ,blues isnt something we brought over or thats not possible.. it is.. the blues is about deep pains etc. all that was birthed through us and our struggles and sounds we created from what little was given to us and what little we had. after working all day in the fields ...... Ramick is Irsh. Irsh were treated like blacks until they gained the opportunity to be considered white. he knew the prayer because they used religion as a way to help irsh ppl and blacks submit. European missionaries and evangelists interacted with enslaved Africans in the American colonies, leading to conversions to Christianity. Africans were colonized with religion. They used it to subdue us and villainized Hoodoo and Voodoo (etc) religions which were practiced by our ancestors.

Beautifully said. I wanted to stop watching at various points, but I powered through.

Y'all cleaner than a mofo! I think that showing Sammi singing blues in the future, then when he was still young, singing in the church, means he did both. He sang gospel at his daddy's church and went on to sing the Blues. So he did both. That is just my theory. I absolutely love this movie; it had so many meanings. Smoke hid Stack and Mary in the Juke Joint, which is why the doors were locked. Annie had already said that you have to kill vampires one by one. The reason all of the other vampires died is because they were outside when the sun came up. Y'all may need to watch it individually without any interruptions to really let it sink in. This film isn't anti-Christian or religion. I think it shows the reality of what some people believe or don't believe. This is an instant classic.

We didn't bring the Blues here. That was created here on this soil, as with everything else that we created. If we brought it with us, we would see it on the continent today, but we don't. I wish we would stop giving our culture to Africa and crediting it to other people. We are our own people here in America, and great because WE are great.

Your comment overlooks a crucial aspect of history and cultural continuity. You said, “We didn't bring the Blues here. That was created here on this soil…”, but this ignores the foundational influence of African musical traditions that enslaved Africans did bring with them. Rhythmic structures, call-and-response patterns, tonal systems, spiritual expression, and the use of music as a means of storytelling and resistance all came with us, even if the genre we now call "Blues" was shaped in America. As I clearly said in my original comment: “The scene depicts all music brought here by African people, no matter their nationality. As it's pretty common knowledge that music originated in Africa.” This directly invalidates the idea that Blues was simply “created here” with no roots elsewhere. The “Blues” may have taken form in the U.S., but it was inspired by African heritage musically, spiritually, and emotionally. The seeds were brought with us, even if the fruit ripened on American soil. That’s all I’m saying, and I fear you missed that completely. Additionally, the film scene also shows that those already here (Indigenous black people) had their own musical traditions, which blended with African and European influences. That complexity is what makes American music so rich. Recognizing our African heritage doesn’t take anything away from us, it honors the continuity of our brilliance across continents.

I think the reason why many people, including myself, see hints of “anti Christianity” is because of scenes like the prayer scene in the end (with the villain) and small jabs at the belief throughout the film in an attempt to create a narrative and discredit its power (ex. earlier on when they meet the harmonica playing gentleman). Things like calling Christianity the “white mans religion” is contradictory to history of the religion: Christ himself was middle eastern, and the origins came from there and North Africa and parts of the Mediterranean, long before it ever touched all of Europe and America. Although it was exported through forced assimilation throughout history, its roots aren’t “white”. It’s one of those things where you’d hope a film with so much reach would not misconceive a God who’s universal, for everyone, because of its messages. Anyways, this is Ryan cooglers best filmmaking. Showcased right here. Also, fun fact is this is Sammie’s first acting role! Actors name is Miles Caton. That blew my mind when I found out.

I truly hope you guys give this an uninterrupted rewatch. This movie is dense in its themes and messages and I feel like a lot of very important plot points were missed. Also, I think you guys should look into the importance of hoodoo in black culture. This movie is far from anti Christian it’s more so pro black ancestral roots. I did enjoy the reaction overall. Can’t wait to rewatch it and run up the YT views when it drops!

mae_annabelle

awesome reaction guys! this was definitely one of the best movies i’ve seen in a long time. i actually met the actor that played Cornbread. sat next to him on a flight from LA to Detroit. really nice guy.

The way that I’ve interpreted that last conversation between Stack and Sammie is that most times even during our darkest times, there was still something good that happens before that. Like before a heartbreak there is love, before a death there is life, before the storm there is a beautiful sky.. Whatever “good” it may be, MOST times we can’t ever recognize or acknowledge just how bad/hard things are if we don’t know what it’s like to experience good ones.. And for them, before the sun went down and everything happened, they felt free and like they were on top of the world together as a family. And I think what they say at the end is one of the most beautiful pieces of dialogue. Especially when you deal with losing someone so important to you “the last time I seen my brother, last time I seen the sun” which is the exact way I felt after losing my grandpa who meant the absolute world to me. And even though life is different without him, there was so much about when he was alive that makes my heart feel full no matter how badly I’ll miss him for the rest of my life.

It’s also part of the larger plan to keep black people oppressed. They can’t save and move away without the currency that requires it.

Montae Williams

Voodoo was villainized and has evolved into something else. Originally there’s nothing wrong with it. And anything was/is “witchcraft” to people with a monotheistic lens tbh. Even science

Casey Adams

Y’all came correct! Y’all did that!

Carlo

Finally finished the reaction.. an at the end with yall discussion.. ol saying that try’s to justify bad doing.. “ Doing Things That Are Bad Don’t Seem So Bad If You Have Good Intentions” an off that is an even older one.. “The Road To Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions” Movie was incred

Dani D

So ya'll just gonna walk in lookin the way ya'll look? I had to cast down my thoughts

Jonathan Blaze

Pearline was doing 'stuff' behind her husband's back. Then she died stabbing Remmick in the back and he got her.

Heavenly Demon

Getting From vibs with the vampires.

NeferCicie

I love that you take time to research unknown words. You guys are brilliant.

Nuffinnbutthetide

the remaking of vampire type entities has been popular recently

Shea

There's a reason the Lord's prayer didn't work, but the mojo bag did? Christianity is NOT our religion.

jasmin

lol i lost it when yall started whispering what kind of cornbread

jasmin

everybody did outstanding like i’m fully gone for jayme lawson but if i gotta pick one standout performance one actor that absolutely needs a oscar for this movie then it’s delroy lindo that englishman was literally my uncle herb over in st bernard parish on the big screen

Damian Ives

The Ethiopians would disagree

Shea

I stand on what I said, so keep praying to the yt Jesus they sold you on. 🤷🏿‍♀️

The rest of the vampires didn't die because the main dude did...they died because they were all out there in the sunrise. Stack and his girl must've just been hiding out till nightfall and then moved on. Stack said in the end that he promised Smoke (off camera after Smoke had the stake to his chest) that he made him promise to let Sammie live out his life...in exchange for his own in the moment...at least that's my understanding of it. We know in this story that every single one of the Vampire's have to be taken out individually, they don't go if their sire is killed. Stack and ole girl must've just saw it happened and I'm guessing stayed in the mill. Maybe why in the final shootout, both doors were locked from the outside...only real reason that would even be a story point.

MattPalmer237

The skin color of the earthly body of Jesus Christ is as inconsequential as yours and mine and anybody else's on this planet. Our eternal souls have no race or color. We're all his children.

Ryan Holmes

Where did bro get his venom knowledge from lmao

Cheryl Wilborn

The Blues is the orginator of all the genres today. The Blues is the blueprint That's black culture.

Angelena Hawkins

But for african americans, it was lowkey forced. it was taught to them by white slave owners and their interpretations. It wasnt originally white, but for black americans born into slavery and so on, especially in 1930's south, it would be known as the "white mans religion". The only versions that black americans knew for a long time and what was passed through generations was the ones taught by white slave owners. You gotta think through the lense of the characters during thier time period, not what we know 90 years later.

Ginger Snaps

My understanding is the Stack and Mary wanted Smoke, Annie and Sammie to turn and they can be a family forever that’s why Mary was so upset that Smoke killed Annie after Stack tried to turn her!! Annie and Smoke just want to be in the afterlife with their Baby girl!

CreepersaurusRexx

I've been waiting until I saw the movie myself before I watched this reaction, and as soon as I did, I came running!! Full speed! I was not prepared for the outfit, but Addison with a pocket square and Brandon giving fully gangster vibes is absolutely chef's kiss, and I haven't even started to react yet.

La Toya Sheri

This movie was so good I saw it in the theatres and brought it as soon as it went on streaming. Excited to see what ya'll thought of it.

Lit scoota♥️

“It’s magic what we do”❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️

Ashanti✨

I hope y’all realize hoodoo and voodoo aren’t bad or anti Christian it depends on the person practicing it and what they’re using it for; it’s what black people practiced before being indoctrinated to Christianity and in fact Christianity has some elements of voodoo

Munna

Yeaaa smoke & stack was most def working with Capone before running off with his liquor then you pop out B.A.R. and Tommy Gun. Klan members only had revolvers and shotguns

Kyoshi Thee Stallion

yeah Remmick would've went absolutely crazy if he had Annie AND Sammie's gifts lol

Makayla

That is a lie, all of that stuff is demonic. And you can’t try to mix Christianity with it, you can’t mix pure with impure.

Ashanti✨

It is not a lie do your research before u come up under my comment

Crazy Taco

So stack was with the Italians and Smoke was in woth the Irish thats why stack is dressed in Italian style and smoke looks like hes out of Peaky Blinders lol they each robbed their ppl and made them blame each other

Crazy Taco

Bruh they are not racist vampires lol this is an aspects yall completely missed and just assumed they where Ryan Coogler said that it was important that Remmick be well rounded and bieng 1000 years old bieng there for the colonization of Ireland by the British and living through apartheid if anything he sypathisizes with them and sought to give them the power to break free

Courtney Jayd

Y’all should watch “Crooklyn” . Seeing Delroy Lindo in this reminds me of that movie. Oh sooo good.

Tori

Watched this on YouTube before I had a membership so now I'm gonna rewatch the uncut reaction.... SSSSAAAAMMMMMMMMYYYY!!!!

Rosedawson87

From Dusk Till Dawn + Django = Sinners

Rosedawson87

Remmick is much older than 1000 year's.

Crazy Taco

Yea it was a general number

The besmirching of Annie and Smoke's Reunion almost had me logging back off 😒

mahjacat

Right? Damn, acting like the babies were just sitting there 😡

mahjacat

Y'all don't know Freedom.

mahjacat

Had his Papa not been so Blindly Dogmatic Sammie wouldn't have Fled.

Haley Seinfeld is a mixed race, black woman who’s playing Mary a mixed race, black woman whose mother taught her how to pass as white, therefore her life would be easier instead people knowing she’s black in the 1930s!!!! She’s also married to Josh Allen!! Something for Bills fans.

Mel Mel

Omg these comments are crazy. Its a movie people let them watch it how they want to watch it. Some people like to analyze movies but you dont have to. Its a movie which is entertainment so just enjoy the movie 🙄
